    Hi all,

    I've been looking into getting a laptop sleeve for my currently imaginary NP9150 (Phase I). I searched through the lounge thread and found a couple suggestions and was wondering what the rest of you use (if anything).

    Sadly, my 4 gussett Samsonite that's barely over a year old is coming apart at the seams, so I can't recommend it. My NP9150 came with an ok bag that'll at least get you by for a bit if you want to get a feel for the laptop & accessories before you buy a good bag. What accessories you want to carry is going to be a big factor in what bag/case makes sense.

    For me specifically, I plan on carrying my NP9150 in my backpack and am just looking for a sleeve for added protection.

    You'll probably need a 17 incher. A 15 inch might be a little too tight. I have a few bookmarked on my laptop, ill post them later.

    I would wait until you get the laptop, take it to the store, and test them yourself. The NP9150 has enough girth that I wouldn't be surprised if at least half of the sleeves for 15" models won't fit, or at least not well, and many 17" sleeves may be sloppy big.

    I haven't been to many stores that have a lot of sleeves, or any at all. This site looks pretty good though.
    Laptop Sleeves - eBags.com
    They have pretty precise measurements for all their products. Might be worth a try?

    Thanks for the site, it certainly has a much wider selection than anything I've found online. There's a Staples nearby with a small selection so I think I will go there after I receive my laptop to get a better feel for sizes. From what I can tell from pictures and the dimensions, it looks like it will have to be a 17 inch case.

    I really wanted the old school razer laptop sleeve but I guess they don't sell it anymore. Anyone one know what would be a good sleeve? I have a backpack I would like to use but if my sager doesn't have a sleeve, it kind of flaps around.
